PostHeaderIcon Alibaba ( Nasdaq;BABA)

In early October I offered E-Alert subscribers up a preliminary look at internet commerce giant Alibaba. At that time I postulated that Pluto inverse quantum price lines (CS=1/8) would be a good tool to use.
Now that I have more price data to work with, I have refined this notion and I now advise that Neptune quantum lines are the ones to use. On the following chart I have sketched in the Neptune lines. I have indicated the price levels where some of these quantum lines reside. On your price charts at home you can use a ruler and a pencil to extend these lines several months forward. I have also overlaid Mars lines. If you are using Market Analyst software, I will be happy to email you the template workbook for this Alibaba chart complete with quantum lines so you don’t have to waste time calculating them.

There appears to be a coming intersection of Mars and Neptune quantum price lines in late December. Watch carefully.

I have also looked at Alibaba using traditional McWhirter astrology and I note:

    The recent October lows align to a 90 degree aspect between transiting Mars and natal Sun.
    In mid-February 2015, Mars will be at 180 degrees to natal Sun.
    December 2015 will see Jupiter make a 0 degree aspect to natal Sun ( a once in 12 year event). This could be a critical multi-year tipping point (good or bad…) for price of Alibaba.
    January of 2017 will see Saturn make a 90 degree aspect to natal Sun. This likewise could be another critical point in time.

PostHeaderIcon Cycles of Venus

To the ancient Babylonians, the planet Venus was called Ishtar – the Goddess of War. Venus was further revered by the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and even the Mayan civilization who were said to have launched attacks on their enemies only at certain times of the Venus cycle.

The Venus cycle is 584 days in length as viewed from our geocentric position here on Earth. A typical Venus cycle starts at what is called Inferior Conjunction – when Venus is between Earth and the Sun as the following diagram illustrates.

 

At Inferior Conjunction, Venus is between Sun and Earth

After Inferior Conjunction, Venus is then visible in the morning eastern sky as the Morning Star for 263 days. For any of you familiar with the rituals of the Freemasons, you will recognize this reference to the Morning Star. Venus then goes through a period called Superior Conjunction (where Sun is between Earth and Venus) as the following diagram illustrates.

During the 50 days of superior Conjunction, Venus is not visible to the unaided human eye.

Once it does become visible again, it appears to us as an object in the western evening sky as the Evening Star for 263 days.

It then approaches Inferior Conjunction and a new cycle starts again.

 

To address the question of whether or not Venus impacts human emotion, consider the following:

 

 

  • In early January 2014, Venus made the transition from being visible as the Evening Star to being at Inferior Conjunction. (ie a new 584 day cycle started…).
  • Did the markets experience a reaction at this transition point? Look back to your charts and I think we can all agree that early January 2014 saw the onset of a brief period of human panic.
  • In the 3rd week of September 2014, Venus made the transition from being visible as a Morning Star to being invisible to the un-aided human eye (ie the 50 day Superior Conjunction period started…).
  • Did the markets experience a reaction at this transition point? Look back to your charts and I think we can all agree that late September 2014 saw the onset of another brief period of human panic.So, I have to conclude that our ancient brethren were right. There is a connection between human emotion and the Venus cycle.
  • I will leave you with one more bit of trivia. At the conclusion of each Venus cycle, if one were to plot the zodiac location of Venus, an interesting pattern emerges.
  • And so it goes… I have traced this cyclical behavior back to the 2007 market highs and I am sure if I continued tracing it back in time I would keep finding alignments to periods of trend change on the markets.

 

I will leave you with one more bit of trivia. At the conclusion of each 584 day Venus cycle, if one were to plot the zodiac location of Venus, an interesting pattern emerges.

 

Venus pentagram

 

 

The pattern is called a pentagon and the star pattern inside it is a pentagram. As noted above, throughout history, Venus has been associated with Gods and Goddesses of War. There is a building in Washington, DC where military commanders make war decisions. That building is the Pentagon and it is 5-sided. Now you know why this is so……

As of November 12th, Venus is now visible as an Evening Star and will remain so until early August 2015 at which time Inferior Conjunction will occur and a new cycle will start. Circle this early August timeframe on your trading calendars. Something will happen…..
